IYO, What's the biggest dissapointment this gen?

So what do you think is the biggest dissapointment this generation?

Imo, I would have to say either Assassin's Creed or Super Smash Bros: Brawl.

Assassin's Creed: Great premise, could have been a spectacular genre defining game, but monotony and repetitiousness kill this game within the first 15 minutes.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl: On its own merits its not a bad game, Infact its pretty enjoyable. That said, this game is still a disappointment in the way that Halo2 and Deus Ex 2 were disappointments, The previous iterations completely overshadow them. SSBB did not add anything of value to SSBM, infact some would argue that it actually "broke" the game a bit more. SSBM was a step foward for the series. SSBB was a step back, or a step sideways at best.

Perfect dark 0

Cmon Rare WTF was that :?

OH man, assassins creed was a HUGE letdown from what UBI promised and hyped..god

UT3 was a huge letdown considering we've seen much older games do better in the series.

nothing like the N64 one which is VASTLY superior in the fun factor, story, replayability and feature department.

At least PDZ has a fantastic multiplayer

for me,

Wii - too much focus on waggle games.

PS3 - not releasing games as early as possible

360 - RROD, paying for online.

Pd64 was a much much better game then what Perfect dark 0 was.

Well to be honest, there are good developers that don't milk the fans (Criterion is one of them) and they do good DLC that is worth every penny.

But when I see things like the MM9 DLC i just want to bomb Capcom HQ, yeah I know it's optional, but I am pretty sure that they could easily had integrated those "special things" in the main games

Too Human; nearly 10 years of development for what? A terribly awful game

FPS on the Wiidarkodonnie

Yeah what happend?, WII was Ripe for a good FPS, and yet nothing came out at that time.

Hopefully CoD W@W can fill that void.

Maybe the conduit will be good too :? I think alot of the FPS dev companies for the Wii are too concerned about graphics. They should understand that if Wii owners were seriously concerned with amazing graphics, they wouldnt have bought a Wii! Just make a good FPS, graphics are secondary. If you give me a truly exciting FPS with mid range PS2 graphics, I dont care, as long as its fun and has a stable frame rate. Thats one thing thats annoying me about the Conduit. They are hyping its graphics, like Wii owners give a damn. Dunno about you guys, but when I want good graphics i turn on my PS3/X360

Ummm...... your point? Games like Half Life 2 had a long development cycle but guess what? it turned out okay. Failing to find a console to release your game on is no excuse for a bad game

ohhh no..i loved it. some say its not a true fps shooter, more of a fpa. but it was a solid samus experience game...i was expecting exactly what the game gave me.

i was disappointed that mario and samus both got respectable new titles for the current gen wii, but link got a port:(...im sure zelda w/ the wii in mind first would be a monumental epicness (not to mitigate tp though)

i wanna play a new zelda so bad

*slaps him on the back of his head*

Biggest dissapointment... this generation hasn't rekindle'd my love for gaming, I'm pretty sure its pushed me further out than I though I would ever be.

Put simply I haven't played one that I have played more than once or want to for that matter, come to think of it 80% of my games are incomplete.
